Oh, how much does it cost. A quick guess, about $500,000, maybe as high as $1 million each, which is still far less than a Stryker.

And far less armoured, mobile, or maneuverable to boot. Not only that, but it's also less strategically mobile, since it's probably twice as long as a Stryker.

True, it is not the best vehicle for a mobile army, but if I can sell it to someone good for me.

I suppose it could be useful in assaulting cities, and I could probably make one that is smaller. The Short Warbus, for special forces.

Try and flank the Warbus and get shot up by a couple dozen guys with Milkor MGLs, or some other support weapon. Hell, I could probably put a few guys with RPGs and have a ghetto tank destroyer.

Here is how the scenario would happen. Your M113s attempt to outflank the Warbus, but whenever they come within eye shot of it they get a dozen rocket propelled grenades up their ass. Or the Warbus could use the 50 soldiers inside to scout ahead and use the Warbus as a mobile fire support base. Best of all, since the Warbus has a huge roof you could probably place a few mortars on it.

Also, the Warbus was initially a joke, but I might decide to make it more practical.

I've got an idea. you could affixe an up armored horse trailer to the bus, you know, Kevlar padded walls. fill it to the brim with men, drop the trailer at their drop zone and leave it there for like, small housing and such, you know, like a tent for them to rest in once the fighting stops. it'll just slow you down if you keep it.

Remember how in World War II the Germans used Flak 88's?

Why don't I just commit millions of dollars to converting Flak guns to Anti-Tank guns and kick your warbuses asses with 88mm Direct Fire from 1 Mile away...
